People forget how bad Vince’s first season was. Vince didn’t turn it around until his 4th and 17 play against Kansas midway through his redshirt sophomore season.

It took Mack Brown time to get the best out of Vince; it may be the same way with Arch. As Sark said, Arch is less like Peyton or Eli and more like his grandfather. Arch needs to run some and make off schedule plays. He needs to show his emotions, the team feeds off it. Arch’s issues arise when he tries to be robotic. Let Arch be Arch.

Take a bus tour with Rabbies. They have numerous tours. The Glen Coe tour is great. See Edinburgh Castle, walk the Royal Mile, and visit Sterling Castle.

That would eliminate 95% of our fans 😂

We have two cream puffs and an off week before we play Florida. They play LSU and Miami. Who do you think will have more injuries? And we are a deeper team.

You also have to take away his first read and limit explosives. When teams did that to Quinn, he dropped his eyes and got a deer in the headlights look. That what we want.

Truths: 1. No buys should be allowed in the CFP. Make it a level playing field. 2. Therefore, the number of teams should be a multiple of 2. That is 2-4-8-16 for the math impaired. 3. If you have any more than 8 teams, you will include cupcakes. 4. More than 16 teams is idiotic.

Tre Wisner 5 yard TD run

Post a picture of Baxter at the scrimmage without his knee brace. That would be exciting.

True. An advantage we have is that Arch is mobile and Sayin is not. The could be big if the OLs are not ready. tOSU’s other QB is mobile but a limited passer.

Apparently, Texas did not push because on his visit we saw that he was not as big as advertised. We viewed him as a split out TE, not someone who could help in the run game. That’s what was said anyway

Outside of WR and Safety, tOSU has significantly less talent this year. Just look at RB, they went from Henderson/Judkins to Peoples (who didn’t have a committable offer from Texas) and Donaldson (a W Va back); they went from a 5th year QB to a freshman. I’m feeling better about the game.

Ahead of Max Clare too; surprising given all the handwringing when we didn’t go all in on him. My money is on Stowers though.

Majors and Connors were both screeners as blockers, they never got any actual push. Umeozulu and Hutson will be physical and push someone back, I just hope that it is the right someone.

If the 2025 OL “holds serve”, the run run blocking will still be better; it is the pass blocking communication that may suffer.

I was listening to Rod B’s podcast this morning and came away optimistic that our redzone problems are fixed for 2025. Each of the problems Rod identified from the last couple of years have been corrected. 1. OL not “bullies” - Majors and Connor replaced with better run blockers in Umeozulu and Hutson. 2. RBs not inside runners - Instead of Wisner and Blue in the redzone, we have Baxter, Gibson, Clark and Simon. We will be running more gap scheme and inside zone as opposed to outside zone which Wisner and Blue were better at. While we had Gibson last year (and he was our best redzone runner), he was a true freshman who hadn’t figured out ball security. Hopefully, that has changed with a year of seasoning. Sark has been great in the redzone with the proper RB. 3. QB undersized and not mobile - Arch definitely cures that. Arch had an 80% redzone TD rate in 2024. He is big enough to sneak the ball and mobile enough where the defense must account for him in the run/scramble game. 4. Sideshow Burt - while we want TDs, our kicker won’t miss chip shots. 5. Turnovers - remember the aTm game where two TOs in the redzone changed the complexion of the game? This one is to be determined, but I don’t see Arch fumbling on slides or making lazy throws to the perimeter.

That is derogatory to all morons.

Not being sarcastic, but let us know what the “sharps” do the week before the game. I’d be interested in that.

Too little, too late

Have to include someone from the BMW team, probably Travis Mays

5 out of seven. I think we can get 5 for 5 from this 2026 class if we get these five

Ojo, Lee and Turntine to go with Wright and Robertson = better than the 2022 class

Roseborough is replaceable, Ojo is not. Easy decision.

Bobby has been adamant that we won’t go over 85 scholarships in 2026 but Sark is offering like we will take 25-30 this recruiting cycle.

Dronnett, tough, mean and a leader on a truly great defense (until they ran into Miami)
